"That's..." she swallows hard, "that's a really good plan."
"I have my moments."
She rises up on her toes, her mouth finding mine in a kiss. When we break apart, we're both breathing hard.
"Race you to the truck," she says with that wicked smile that still makes my heart skip.
"You're on, Mrs. Scott."
As we head for the exit, I take one last look around the arena that brought us back together. The Nest, where Iron Ridge comes to cheer and dream and believe in magic.
Tomorrow, we'll be back here for practice. Next week, we'll hopefully be celebrating another win. But tonight?
Tonight is just for us.
And I plan to make the most of every single minute with my high school sweetheart.
